Detect (4) 4+6 = 14
Hearing is 10

Detect: 10,9,+8 = 27

No super ears though.

You're not in the basement are you Roman?

Well anyway, Phoebe certainly hears it. A quiet metallic tapping from behind the grate.

I'll take the bait... Going to try to sneak a peak at the grate to see what is making the taping noise. Carefully obviously..

Detect (4) 5+7 = 16
Sneak (5) 10+3 = 18
Hide (5) 4+4 = 13

You are correct. Best roll I've ever had (and probably ever will) and I wasn't even eligible for it.

Nah he's in the closet

Peering through the grille, you see the silhouette of a stubby little figure, like an egg with legs. As it advances, and it's only a few meters away, you hear the whirring of a chainaxe starting up.

Oh piss. Joose and I are surmising that's a very nasty, angry Tek Trex drone.
Get your face away from the grille.

How odd that would be though, usually they just have guns.

Maybe it's a Halloween Jack doobrie!

Sure enough, a small chainaxe blade clatters against the grille, cutting a wide gash in it.

Cheese it Pheebs!

Phoebe backs away from the grill quickly and gets ready to slash the little egg thing.

Phoebe over comms wrote:Guys this thing ain't over.. we need back up!

As Phoebe finishes her sentence, the chainaxe cuts another gash across the vent, allowing the wielder to push though. Emerging from the small tunnel is a roughly half meter tall robot, with a pair of stubby legs, a small chainaxe mounted under its chassis, and the muzzle of a small SMG jutting from it. Phoebe and Spindle, and anyone else with more than a few points of streetwise, recognise it as a Tek Trex Buzzard drone. This one also appears to have a couple of grenades crudely wired into it, which have been bodge taped to its sides.

Sounds adorable.

A few questions before I proceed..
Is it using the chain axe as a weapon or is it armed with guns as well. Am I able to tell if the grenades have been activated yet? Can I throw or kick it using flex weapon or martial arts? Sorry so many questions... Leaning towards kicking cause that might just be funny. We will see.

That's always a bonus

At the moment we're hanging on the cusp of bullet time, so it's not doing anything. That chainaxe looks pretty brutal though, and is it the right height to make a mess of your shins. There is definately a gun there too. You've probably heard enough about these things to know they use both. As far as you can tell the grenades haven't activated, but only because they're not flashing, beeping, or exploding. Finally, yes you can use martial arts to give is a kick.

Hoooray! I shall kick even though I know I will take damage. I feel I will take damage no matter what I do with this thing, so the more entertaining the better.

Phoebe runs up to the TT Buzzard and kicks him as hard as she can (secretly hoping that he is a pinata full of delicious candies)
Martial arts (7) 7+8= 22

Well then When I hear Phoebe's message, I'll round up K'trr and Grimmie and head to the elevator. I still have the mini-cams watching the garage entrances so we'll know if someone shows.

Nice kick. As it turns towards you, its mini-SMG coming to bear, you hit it with a low roundhouse kick right in the cameras. It totters back into the crawlspace and rolls over onto its back, chainaxe spinning and legs kicking ineffectively.

Here's what he looks like. Rotate your monitor by 90 degrees for full effect.
